Building Bridges: Our School of Human Ecology in the Real World

The Ruth Davis Design Gallery is excited to announce its annual summer exhibition, Building Bridges: Our School of Human Ecology in the Real World. Featuring work by current students as well as alumni of the School of Human Ecology, these projects will focus on how they use the skills they acquired in the classroom to build bridges across communities.  

Some featured student projects include visual posters and objects from the Design Studies department that showcase efforts in Tharaka, Kenya to empower local women, and techniques that students enrolled in a Consumer Strategy and Evaluation course developed to entice their peers to visit the Design Gallery.  

Alumni featured in the exhibition include Stacy Igel, creator of the Boy Meets Girl fashion line, Zebradog, a local design firm, as well as Kim Sponem, CEO of Summit Credit Union, and Marjorie Engleman and Linda Brazill, both artists/collectors.
